Why buy something you can make yourself. Homemade Soups are far tastier than any you can buy and they are so easy to make.

All you need is stock, veggies , herbs and spices and a blender of some kind.

pumpkin

Cauliflower

Broccolli

Tomato

let your imagination run riot

it is not only less expensive to make your own Soup it is healthier. I bought some Soups and not $100 worth, far less and I can tell you I still have more than 1/2 left

I tend not to buy from the site. I make my own using my crock pot or Instant pot. The ones you can buy tend to have too much sodium or even soy. Soy is bad for me since I have PCOS. I make Soups and then freeze them in individual containers. I pop one out for lunch for work or even dinner.

Make your own Soup, AND put some BariatricPal soup on the shelf. Sometimes it's nice to have a variety of flavors in an on the go package.

Homemade soup is a staple at my house. Loves it! Veggie, split pea, bean, crock pot leftover soup, chicken....

But it's awfully handy to have some Soups in the cupboard that are grab and go.

I'm not sure, but I have purchased a lot myself to tide myself over the first month. Surgery in a couple months. Hope someone comes along and has a review of them. I have heard that Unjury makes the best chicken Soup. Good luck!

I’ve tried the Unjury chicken Soup. It’s ok. Not the best I’ve ever had. I just ordered the cream of broccoli from BP.

I was forced to buy about 200 worth of food from my surgeon's office. I ended up throwing most of it away. Maybe its just me but I found the Soups and shakes to be gritty and bland. Huge waste of money in my opinion. If I were you, I would buy a container of Protein Powder and add it to homemade soups.

Do you guys add Protein powder to your Soups? Or do you blend meat and other sources of protein in?

I'm still in the full liquid stage (Stage 2) but I'm getting sick of the protein powder flavor if I add it to my Soup ( I use an unflavored one but it still has that aftertaste)

Any tips would be appreciated! :)

Hi vsgnewbie. I did blend a can of chicken noodle Soup in the blender. It tasted pretty good!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
